Um guys... All I wanted to know was why you can't use CNAME for a MX record.
The question has been answered, and maybe this topic can be dropped now? Or
should we continue on giving our opinions on what should and shouldn't be
posted and how it should be posted, etc...
Second, I just wanted to point out that this is qmail list, not djdns or
bind list. So asking a question related to qmail, and using a format of bind
or djdns zone files to give further explanation of what is the
question/problem should be ok. If bind zone files offend you, I think you
might have a bigger problem to worry about. It's like saying inetd startup
script for qmail offends me because I use tcpserver... Come on, give it a
break. And giving an apology for posting relevant info? Maybe you should
also put in an apology, every time you write something that might offend
someone...
The questions have been asked and answered, lets just move on with our lives
now and end this thread.
On an ending note, I appreciate everyone that responded to my question and
gave me relevant info. I have fixed it on our servers, and am very happy
that I am now RFC compliant.
